Hello quick one today as I had to pull a late one to make target, last warrior squad down until I expand the army to 3k+ so thats a sigh of relief. The bad news is that the Last Ravager makes this weekend a write off :o( lol I doubt I’ll ever paint the third, especially with a Void Raven on the way , getting slightly miffed with Dark Glances again anyway, my Ravagers have done nothing significant for three straight games now they aint exactly selling themselves.
Also my Batllefoam 10,000,0000 XXXXXXXL turned up today, I have put the whole entire cupboard of Commoragh into it , fun times. They had one slight cawk up with one of the trays wich was somewhat my fault for being so anal (I prefer communicative) waiting to see how BF handles it before writing a proper review, bags a bit big for my tastes but it’s the only way to get the damn army into a case. If you see a giant green thing that blots out the sun rumbling towards Nottingham on the 14th don’t worry It’s just me , Stearing the Battlefoam case Gargant-like to WH world….
As we know I’m going to ToS in a couple of weeks, news just in , I’m now paid up for the UK GT, I look forward to getting owned by spam of many colours, lol, no amount of loosing is going to get me to paint five more venoms or whatever else is in the current cut-and-paste DE competitive build.
For the GT I might drop the Archon for more Reavers , but thassabout it , tho conceivably I could see the incubi being replaced by more Wyches. Lets see what ToS teaches us. maybe we will even have a Void by then …
And a funny for you all, thanks for the linky Ben
that was entertaining to say the least. possibly more so than the ultramarine movie!! ha.
Was epic when i watched it yesterday, and its still epic now. Awesome warrior squad, whats left on the painting list?
Bonjour Ben,
His name, iF yOu sPeAk iT hE wiLl CoMe ….
Painting list is down to half a Ravage, should tick that off tomorrow and 4 Trueborn and both characters, 2 weeks to do 6 models… Can d othe TB’s during the week this week and in Theory each character on Sat/Sun respectively, should leave me with a few days clear to relax or make final tidyups/whatever.
Heh…’dark glances’…good one, Shard…
Nice stuff, and that link is hilarious.
I have to admit an expensive HQ choice in DE is often hard to stomach when you consider how easily stuff dies, and them all being basically CC orientated. Plus you can generally swap them for a good squad of something else!
Have you considered doing Dissies on a ravager? I’ve been thinking about it recently, and pondering whether extra AT elsewhere might make it worthwhile. Afterall that setup is super nasty versus marines that aren’t in cover.
Yeah, the HQ often struggles to justify it’s inclusion especially when it’s cost is invariably enough for more AT , no quality AT in the army so the only option is to go for quantity.
I have considered dissies on a ravager , but I find a Razorwing nukes stuff better and becomes even more useful vs non-Meq armies, whereas the cover system means unless you are fortunate you can only count on 2 meq kills per volley , its why I’m pissed with the Tantalus , they could have at lest amped the str to 6 or something …..
